Many people often ask me how to grow a few tens of thousands into a million-dollar account. My answer is very practical: don’t start with the unrealistic goal of ten million right away. It’s more reliable to first truly hold the first 1 million in your hands.

Once you have 1 million, even earning just 20% from spot trading can match an ordinary person’s annual salary. But the stage from 50,000 to 1 million is only reliably approached through position rolling—not by daily small gains slowly stacking up, but by compressing compound interest into a few "precise critical hits."

**How to do it? It’s simple—practice with small positions to hone your skills and find your feel. When a real big market signal appears, then focus all your firepower on one move.** I personally only go long, never touch short positions. Beginners should avoid challenging dual-direction trading lightly.

So what signals are truly reliable? My standard is that three points must be met:

**First signal**: Consolidation after a sharp decline followed by a breakout. The price bottoms out and stabilizes for at least two weeks, then suddenly surges with increased volume through the previous oscillation zone. Only then is a trend reversal confirmed.

**Second signal**: The daily chart firmly stays above key moving averages. The key is that trading volume should rise with the price. Complaints in the market decrease, and more people are watching—this indicates market sentiment is building.

**Third signal**: Market heat. This is an experience I’ve summarized from pitfalls: when no one is talking about coins on trending searches, and retail investors are still complaining about losses, the main players are often quietly building positions.

Now, let’s talk about practical details for a 50,000 principal—these are proven tips I’ve personally tested:

Step one: This 50,000 must be truly idle money, even if lost entirely, it shouldn’t affect your living expenses. First, set a stop-loss to protect the principal, then consider position rolling.

Step two: Use a segregated account mode, controlling total position size within 10%, with leverage no more than 10x—equivalent to an actual risk of only 1x leverage. Keep the stop-loss at a strict 2%; this number must not be loosened.

Step three: Add positions rhythmically after a breakout. Every 10% price increase, I use the newly earned profit to open an additional 10% position, but always keep the stop-loss at 2%.

Step four: No all-in bets, no averaging down, no holding through losses. When a stop-loss is triggered, stop immediately to preserve your bullets for the next opportunity—this is key to surviving longer.

Following this rhythm, if you catch a 50% main upward wave, 50,000 can grow to 200,000. By repeatedly catching two such waves, reaching 1 million becomes stable.

**Risk control must also be memorized: **Avoid trading in sideways markets, during downtrends, or with news-driven coins. I’ve seen too many people get wrecked on these. The advantage of using segregated accounts is that even if one position is liquidated, only that margin is lost, not the entire account. An important habit: when rolling positions, take out 30% of each profit to secure gains—don’t let greed turn against you.

One last word: position rolling is never about gambling on luck, but about "finding opportunities."
